It may be the correct one, just that on panther, you may need to include 
complex separately. You could include <complex.h> just before 
<vecLib.h>, but I am not sure it is the right thing to do (maybe on 
panther, vecLib has its own complex type, or something like that: on gcc 
3.3 page, it is said that complex support in C99 manner is broken, which 
is why I am a bit reluctant to just add 
<complex.h>:http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.3/c99status.html ).
